Ganesh Festival Campaign

(Sattvik Picture of Lord Ganesh by Sanatan Sanstha)
O Hindus! Be Hindus by Action!
During the period of Ganesh Festival stop evils from entering into the festival
and do maximum chanting of 'Om Gan Ganapataye Namah' to get
real benefit of the festival. Hindu festivals are not just for social gathering
but for faster spiritual progress (to gain the grace of the Lord) !

Anything which
is in consonance with the scriptures proves to be ideal and beneficial.
If the idol of Lord Ganesh is sculpted as per the science behind the idol
then those worshipping it are benefited. Unfortunately today, idols are
worshipped in various forms and shapes based on one's liking and imagination
without taking into account the science behind the idol. This is resulting
in the denigration of Lord Ganesh.

Video: Ganesh Festival
Committees immerse Lord Ganesh's Huge idol like throwing the waste.
The image alongside shows huge idol of Lord Ganesh in the form of Saint Sri
Gajanan Maharaj of Shegoan (which is incorrect as per science behind
the idol) This video shows extreme insult of Lord by common Hindus !
This video is not intended to hurt the sentiments of devotees of Lord
Ganesh, but it is an effort to prevent malpractices entered in festival.
Hindus, Immerse
the idol in scientific manner only! |
See
the shocking Picture: Bulldozers collecting parts of Ganesh idols made
up of Plaster of Paris one day after Immersion. Will the Lord ever bless the devotee who worships Him in a way that hurts the Lord Himself and results in His extreme insult? The image is on BBC's website. Click here and see 'Seventh' Image: Image
